Runaway Daddy (Waterloo road)

09

Layla woke up and sighed. She placed a hand on her stomach and sighed. She was scared and didn't know what to do. She knew that she was pregnant again but she and Tom hadn't even discussed having another baby. She was scared that it would be like last time and that he would walk out of her again. She knew that she needed to trust him but it scared her. It scared her so much. Layla stood from the bed and rushed into the bathroom as she started to throw up. She knew that she was scared on telling tom that she was pregnant but she knew that she had to do it. It terrified her. Layla sat on the bathroom floor once she was finished throwing up and sighed to herself. Layla knew she needed to tell tom that she was pregnant and it terrified her as she just didn't know what would happen and how he would react

Layla waked down into the kitchen and smiled as she saw tom and Polly as they sat together. Layla walked over and started to make herself a coffee as the smell of it knocked her for six. She felt sick. Layla ran a hand through her hair and sighed as Tom walked over to her and frowned. He could tell that she was off and that there was something up with her "are you okay?" Tom asked as Layla nodded. He looked to her and sighed "no, your not. I know you Layla and I know when there is something up with you, talk to me" he said as she looked to him and sighed "I'm pregnant" she said as Tom looked to her and smiled "that's great" "is it?" She asked as he nodded "yeah, it's all going to be isn't. I promise" he said as he pulled her into a hug and smiled

Layla got to work and sighed as she saw Rachel. Rachel looked to her and frowned "are you okay" she asked as Layla looked to her and sighed "can I talk to you" she asked as Rachel nodded. Rachel lead her to the office as Layla ran her hands through her hair and sighed "I'm pregnant" Layla said as Rachel looked to her and nodded "does tom know?" "He does and he says that he wants to try and that he wants to do it right unlike with Polly but I'm scared. I'm scared as I don't know if I can trust him" Layla sobbed as Rachel hugged her and smiled "it's going to be okay" Rachel said as she held her daughter close

Layla walked into toms office later that day. He looked to her and smiled "how are you feeling?" He asked as she smiled "rotten, I need to know now tom, it this is what you really want as I can't cope if it's like last time and you walk out" she said as he looked to her and smiled. He took a hold of her hand and smiled "I know I was an idiot in the past but I want this, I want our baby, I want you and Polly and our family and it's all going to be oaky, I promise" tom said as he leant in and kissed her. Layla only hoped that she could trust him this time around
